"GOd Bless Dr.. Gaee'

Is the heartfelt expression of Mrs. 4, Ashley,
of Sharon. VT, whose daughter Lillian has
been rescued from bed of pain and suffering
through the nstrumentality of this noted
physician An injury TO her spine had render
ed her Il pless invalid, and no phys'c an in
this section seemed able to cope with the diff
ficulty. Some physicians advised that she be
taken to hospital for treatment. This was
utterly impossible for the least movement
caused the most eXcruciating pain, and ii was
with the greatest difficulty that she could be
moved, even sufficiently TO allow the adjust
ment of her pillow without faintiHg and
prostration. As incredible as the statement
may appear, it is a fact, nevertheless, that DR..
Gage examined her case and prescribed the
remedies without seeing her, which have
wrought this marvellous cure. In very
short time she was up and dressed and in less
than three weeks able to leave town on
visit. This is indeed II wonderful cure, yet no
more so than hundreds of Others in all parts
of the State who have been restored TO health
by this singularly successful physician.
